This book feels like watching one of those coming-of-age movies which you keep rewatching as you get older and still love. It is very obviously from the perspective of a 14-year-old girl and the author genuinely writes it in a way a teenage girl would think and act. Great book, would highly suggest for a beach read that is more on the literary fiction/ contemportary fiction side.
Content Warnings
Graphic: Antisemitism, Religious bigotry, and Toxic relationship
Moderate: Terminal illness, Sexual content, Racism, and Drug use
